Close-Up Mentalism

About Me

I'm a Los Angeles mentalist, an expert in parapsychology and the human mind, with a deep understanding of unconscious behaviour and body language. As a mentalist, I use these skills to entertain and uncover hidden secrets in my audiences, revealing the untapped potential within us all.

Currently, I perform in Los Angeles at Black Rabbit Rose and speak annually at DEFCON about hacking the human mind. I've mesmerized audiences worldwide, including in Berlin, Prague, New York, and more. Check out my upcoming shows or reach out to commission a unique experience.

What types of magicians can you hire?

You can hire magicians to perform close-up magic, stage illusions, comedy magic, mind-bending mentalism, and more! For an event with a large seated audience, consider a stage comedy magician, mind reader, or illusionist to captivate attendees. You might hire a close-up walkaround magician to entertain cocktail party guests.

How long do magicians perform for at events?

Magicians will slot into your event schedule and provide timing recommendations. They might recommend specific durations to perform at every guest's table. Some will already have prepared magic performances that last 20 minutes, 40 minutes, or a full hour!

Can I see videos of the magicians before hiring?

Once you're connected with one of our magicians, you can discuss magic performance videos and testimonials and even jump on Zoom to preview their magic. For some events, magicians will be happy to travel to you so you can see some magic ahead of the big day.
